Experimental and numerical investigation on diluted DME flames: Thermal and chemical kinetic effects on laminar flame speeds

Chemical Kinetic Mechanism of a Three-Component Fuel Composed of Iso-octane/n-Heptane/Ethanol

“…This finding has also been observed in the premixed dimethyl ether (DME)=air flames (Chen et al, 2012). Reaction (R187) is a branching reaction.…”

Detection and Identification of the Keto-Hydroperoxide (HOOCH2OCHO) and Other Intermediates during Low-Temperature Oxidation of Dimethyl Ether

“…18,22,25 Given its great application potential and the simplicity in molecular structure, the hightemperature combustion chemistry of DME has also been extensively studied. [31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39][40][41][42][43][44][45][46][47] Because of the importance of low-temperature chemistry in determining fuel effects in autoignition, the present paper focuses on the key reactions and intermediates of the low-temperature regime, and the results of the high-temperature chemistry studies will not be reviewed here.…”

Experimental and kinetic modeling study of the low- and intermediate-temperature oxidation of dimethyl ether

“…Due to its promising properties and potential as an alternative fuel, DME has been investigated extensively in the past decade including experiments such as pyrolysis [5][6][7][8][9][10][11], oxidation [4,5,8,[12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24] and flames [25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36], and theoretical calculations [7][8][9][17][18][19][37][38][39], covering a wide range of temperatures and pressures. Based on these experimental and theoretical studies, detailed kinetic models for DME combustion have been developed [5,7,15,25,40]…”
